    Justin is a hell of a guy to meet too. Funny as they come and a good amount of knowledge and story to tell over a few beers.

    I'm going to the lease tonight. I've put in about 35 hours of OT this week and I need a getaway. I have to put in a water tank and pump to service 4 travel trailers out there. That and some new lights in the cook shack. I'll also hang one more stand.

    Well guys, I finally got around to setting my camera up in my honey hole property. I am gonna give it a week or two before I check it.... hopefully I get some nice'uns on there. My buddy and I checked his camera yesterday on another property and got two, maybe three shooters... the rest were little spikes.

    Its been cool here for awhile...It's actually worse because it brings on the feeling of the season right around the corner WAY too soon.

    I was noticing some erratic arrow flight while practicing the other day, so I completely re-tuned yesterday and I'll be... a well tuned bow is a beautiful thing!:D

    My wife Sara started shooting again. She hasn't touched her bow since last Oct. After her first 3 arrows, she was slinging them in groups the size of quarters. Funny how that works:rolleyes:

    I'm hoping to get her first whitetail harvest filmed this fall. It's cool to see her start to get excited again.
